SUMMARY:CHDR Presents: Miguel Bandeira Jeronimo
URL:https://events.ucf.edu/event/4220300/chdr-presents-miguel-bandeira-jeronimo/
DESCRIPTION:The Politics of the Image: Documenting "Civilised Savagery" in Portuguese Africa (1900s-1920s)\n\nThe growing internationalisation of African affairs from the late nineteenth century onwards was accompanied by an intensification of critical scrutiny of European colonial rule, both within Africa and beyond. "Civilised savagery" came under increasing examination, and the production, circulation, and strategic use of photographic images played a central role in this process. As both document and evidence, photography became a crucial means of "authenticating outrage" in response to imperial inequalities and colonial abuses, particularly those associated with new forms of slavery and coercive labour--often described as "modern slavery." Photography thus became a powerful political, social, economic, and "moral" instrument, mobilised by a wide range of actors for different, and sometimes competing, purposes.\n\nIn the early twentieth century, the plantations of Sao Tome and Principe--and, in particular, the international controversy over "slave cocoa"--became one of the most revealing episodes in this broader history. This presentation examines how photographic evidence acquired such political and moral force, how it was produced and mobilised by different actors, and what the Sao Tome controversy reveals about the relationship between visual politics, humanitarian critique, and the transformation of colonial governance.

URL:https://events.ucf.edu/event/4211839/ucf-space-week-watch-party-of-hidden-figures/
DESCRIPTION:Join UCF Library for a viewing of Hidden Figures (2017).\n\n"As the United States raced against Russia to put a man in space, NASA found untapped talent in a group of African-American female mathematicians that served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in U.S. history. Based on the unbelievably true life stories of three of these women, known as "human computers", we follow Dorothy Vaughn, Mary Jackson, and Katherine Johnson as they quickly rose the ranks of NASA alongside many of history's greatest minds specifically tasked with calculating the momentous launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, and guaranteeing his safe return."\n\n[Learn more about the film.](https://ucf-flvc.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/01FALSC_UCF/b5i39v/alma99384128575206596)\n\nFor more information, visit the [Library's event page](https://ucf.libcal.com/calendar/ucf-libraries-events/fall-2026-hidden-figures).\nRegistration Link: https://ucf.libcal.com/calendar/ucf-libraries-events/fall-2026-hidden-figures
